My husband had a cataract surgery on his both eyes. Dr. Lav Panchal is an excellent doctor and surgeon. He is extremely meticulous, careful, and thoughtful, and he provides a quiet, very reliable process during his surgery and post-surgery treatment. We highly recommend him to all patients, especially the elderly, who require cataract surgery. Thank you, Dr. Panchal.

My husband had cataract surgery by Dr Panchal. He was very please with results. Scheduling for office visits were easy and professional. His only complaint was wait time for each visit. Often times he needed to wait over an hour to see Dr Panchal. We could highly recommend Dr Panchal for anyone who needs this surgery.
